Hoping this isn't an n-th posting on the same subject: The Google Maps
API doesn't provide any feature supporting the same kind of typeahead
you get on regular Google Maps - true or false?

For example:
I type "Mut" in the search field in regular Google Maps, and get a
selection "Muttontown, NY, USA" / "Mutterstadt, Germany" / "Mutual,
OK, United States", and so on.

I've seen this library built on jQuery: 
http://code.google.com/p/geo-autocomplete/
Which is not quite what I'm looking for, because:
(a) this issue: http://code.google.com/p/geo-autocomplete/issues/detail?id=7
(appears not to be a true typeahead, but more a "pre-/live-search")
(b) I'm working with Domino XPages, and am hesitant to mix Dojo and
jQuery

Looking at the HTTP headers, the URI being addressed during typeahead
appears to be "http://maps.google.com/maps/suggest?q=...";
Questions:
(a) is it legitimate / is one allowed to use this resource?
(b) is there any documentation on the parameters (q=, cp=, hl=, gl=,
v=, clid=, json=, ll=, spn=, auth=, src=, num=, numps=, callback=, and
what-have-you)?

Thanks!
